Types of Motorcycle Races

With years of experience assisting dating app companies, KJ Dhaliwal has worked at Dating Group since August of 2015. When not serving in the chief strategy officer role, KJ Dhaliwal enjoys motorcycle racing. There are many types of motorcycle races, suited for different bikes and terrain.

The most renowned type of motorcycle race is the MotoGP. Races of this type occur on paved roads, using bikes built expressly for racing. World-class racers participate, with each MotoGP subcategory allowing bikes with different sets of specifications. The MotoE class, for example, features electric motorcycles.

The other motorcycle race types deviate from the standard MotoGP format to different extents. During Superbike racing, only motorcycles with certain engine specifications are allowed to compete, and bikes in these races are consumer-brand, rather than motorcycles built exclusively for racing. Motocross races occur off-road, on surfaces like grass or dirt, and feature elevation changes. Supermoto utilizes both paved and off-road racing surfaces, and Supercross emphasizes the challenge elements using an indoor, stadium-based race, containing obstacles and steep hills.
